## Discrepancy

(CAN) THE OTBD HOLE IN THE SPEED BRAKE TRUNNION SUPPORT IS ABOUT .5 HOLE MISALIGNED WITH THE HOLE IN THE RIB WHERE THE UPPER OTBD AILERON CABLE PASSES THROUGH ON BOTH THE LT AND RT WING. THE AILERON CABLES WERE WORN AND HAD WORN INTO THE AFT SIDE OF THE HOLE IN THE TRUNNION SUPPORTS. REPAIR S-550-0699/04RD WAS ISSUED TO BLEND THE TRUNNION SUPPORT AND THE AILERON CABLES WERE REPLACED.
